      Ok bud. Not everything is quite so political. Think more “dark side of the force” and less “dark side of the skin tone spectrum.”

          It’s a common expression, hence people downvoting you and making snarky comments. When someone uses a common phrase and it’s met with someone asking a frankly silly, seemingly loaded, clarifying question, it feels a bit like shit stirring, ya know?

            I get what you mean however:

            It wasn’t common to me, I’ve never heard of that hashtag (I don’t use Twitter) and it’s not used by any of my family or friends, which is why I asked.

            Contrary to the ideology of assume first ask never, I did the opposite and tried to politely ask what they meant.

            I could care less about downvotes from people who’d rather make an assumption first than simply ask someone to elaborate or participate in conversation rather than black and whiting everything all the fucking time lol.

            Sounds like a miserable life imo, I feel bad for them more than anything, vicious cycle.

            Long story short, people should be more inquisitive and less judgmental imo.

      Haha, yeah. Too much representation, boo-hoo, why don’t I see enough white people on tv?
